Artist's description:

`Sweet bubbles` - oil on canvas, metallic leaves. I love the way gold looks on icons. It gives the feeling of sanctity, mystery, purity..something, which is higher than this world we live in. That was the mane purpose I started to use shimmering paints and metallic layers on my own paintings. I started long ago, with gesso layers and more traditional techniques. But, the paintings where heavy. So I decided to try contemporary approach. You can see the result.I think that painting should represent the inner world of the painter. Everyone can paint what they see. But not everyone can paint what they actually feel about those things they see, hear, or feel. The work of art should make people think and feel deeper, inspire them.
